Through observation, Li An discovered that the dancers seemed to be from different races. This was because the leader of the dancers looked fairer and more beautiful, while the dancers behind her were a little tanned. They looked the same as the Kunlun slaves in Nanyang.
The people of South Tianzhu were divided into four classes, plus a class of untouchables. From high to low, they were Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishe, Sudra, and untouchables.
Different castes had to do different jobs, and the social status gap was huge. The first caste, Brahmin, could do high-end work such as sacrifice. The second caste, Kshatriya, was the ruling class of the country, such as the king and warriors. The third caste, Vaishe, was the ordinary people, such as farmers. The fourth caste, Sudra, was engaged in very hard handicraft and other heavy labor, and their status was even lower than Vaishe. As for the last class of untouchables, they were even more unlucky. They had to do even more menial work, such as digging up dung.
As for why this strange caste system formed in South Tianzhu, the general view was that more than a thousand years ago, the Aryans from the west invaded South Tianzhu and established their own country. In order to better rule this area and maintain their privileged status, the Aryans came up with a caste system, making the local indigenous people only able to do the lowest low-level labor for generations, thus making them lose the ability to resist.
The last class of Sudra and untouchables were the subjugated local indigenous people. They were non-Aryan, and their rights were limited in order to make them slaves for generations. They did not have the right to participate in religious life.
Between different castes, they could not casually intermarry, but men of higher castes could marry women of lower castes, because women were the vassals of men. In this way, the next generation of their children would still be of higher castes.
In later generations, in South Tianzhu, the caste system had been abolished by law, but in actual daily life, the caste system was still prevalent and had not changed because of the enactment of the law. This was also a very helpless thing, and it was not changed by anyone's will.
Of course, in the whole world, the caste system was not only in South Tianzhu. In many places, there had been a caste system that oppressed people.
For example, in later generations, Hua Xia was conquered by a small tribe, and the newly established country formulated a caste system to suppress the Han people. The small Mongolian tribe was the first class, the rest of the ethnic minorities were the second class, the Han people in the north were the third class, and the Han people under the Southern Song Dynasty were the fourth class.
This kind of system was naturally to protect the interests of the Mongolian group and prevent the huge Han people from regaining power, which was the same as the purpose of the Aryans to rule the subcontinent.
However, the Great Han people were unyielding and would not submit to such a system of oppression. In the decades of Mongol rule, the Great Han people continued to resist and finally chased the small Mongol tribes out. From there, they took back power and chased the small Mongol tribes back to the Great Desert Grasslands.
Correspondingly, this policy of oppressing the Han people was soon abolished, and no trace of it was left. No one dared to discriminate against the Han people.
But in the later generations, the Great Han Dynasty once again placed these small races in a very high position. Among the dozens of races, all the small races were well taken care of. Only the Great Han Dynasty didn't have the slightest bit of care. A single Great Han Dynasty had dozens of fathers.
Of course, this was the Han people who took the initiative to recognize their fathers. It was not that these small tribes really held any power, so the situation was different from South Tianzhu.
Ang Lee felt sad for these low-caste people in South Tianzhu. If nothing changed, these poor indigenous people would be bullied by the high-caste people for generations.
Of course, if the Tang dynasty interfered with this system and provided weapons to the local indigenous people, it would be a different situation. As long as the local indigenous people received a large amount of foreign support, they could overthrow the foreigners who ruled them and achieve national independence.
However, as long as there were no great benefits, the Tang dynasty would not come so far to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.
"Your Highness, the two girls leading the team are very beautiful!"
Ang Lee boldly praised.
"Assistant Minister Li, these are the best dancers in South Tianzhu. The one on the left is Karina, and the one on the right is Karina. They are a pair of sisters."
King Héraud replied with a smile.
"Oh, Karina and Karina, what a pair of lovely sisters! I like them very much. "
Ang Lee said with a smile. His eyes kept wandering up and down the bodies of the two sisters, and he could not wait to take a few more glances.
"Assistant Minister Li, you like these sisters very much. This is their good fortune accumulated over several lifetimes. Let them serve you tonight."
King Héraud said generously.
Ang Lee said happily, "Your Highness is so generous. You are a good man."
"Hahaha!"
Cheers and laughter resounded throughout the banquet, making people not feel the tension before the war at all.
"Come here, you must be my younger sister, Karina!"
Ang Lee waved his hand and turned on his flirting mode.
"Yes, I am."
His younger sister, Karina, came over with a smile.
It had to be said that the girls in South Tianzhu were very good-looking. They were full of a charming exotic style, which made people unconsciously intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
This was the high-caste people in South Tianzhu, the so-called Aryans. The Aryans were actually a European people from the grassland of Southern Russia. Later, they gradually moved south and conquered the South Asian subcontinent. They integrated with the local high-caste people and formed a unique high-caste people.
The Aryans were actually a nomadic people with a low level of civilization. Animal husbandry was the focus of their life. They raised bulls and cows, and the cow dung was made into round cakes as fuel. Until later generations in South Tianzhu, they still liked to make round cakes out of cow dung.
The Aryans moved south and conquered the subcontinent because the environment of their habitat had deteriorated. In order to obtain better living conditions, they had to leave and used violent means to conquer the indigenous people in the subcontinent.
Of course, the Aryans did not only migrate to the subcontinent. They scattered and migrated in all directions and established many countries one after another. For example, the Aryans who entered Europe formed the Germanic, Latin, and Celts. The Aryans who entered the Iranian plateau formed the Persian Empire.
Therefore, the Aryans were a very aggressive people. The high-caste people in South Tianzhu had already settled down in this area and were no longer nomadic people. Their aggressiveness continued to decrease, and they were reduced to the point where they were bullied by the Lion Kingdom.
Just like the central plains of the Hua Xia Empire, it had always been the core area of Hua Xia. However, no matter how strong the people were, as long as they occupied the central plains, they would soon be weakened. The people would become very weak, resulting in the continuous decline of their combat power. They would complete the transformation from wolves to sheep.
A group of Aryans who migrated east entered the territory of Hua Xia. They copied the pattern of enslaving the subcontinent and wanted to occupy the rich land of Hua Xia.
Unfortunately, they were very unlucky. They encountered the Shang Dynasty of Hua Xia. Moreover, it was during the period of Wu Ding, who was relatively powerful.
Wu Ding's wife, Fu Hao, was a very capable commander. She personally led the army of the Shang Dynasty to meet the invading army of the Aryans. She defeated the invading army and defeated the invading Aryans.
The oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in Hua Xia recorded this important historical moment. "Fu Hao led the army to the west and killed more than 20,000 white soldiers." This sentence meant that Fu Hao led the army of the Shang Dynasty and killed more than 20,000 white soldiers, who were the so-called Aryans.
This short sentence reflected the powerful combat power of the Hua Xia people. The Aryans who were invincible in the subcontinent were quickly defeated after entering Hua Xia. They did not dare to provoke the ancestors of the Hua Xia people anymore.
The most embarrassing thing was that they had actually lost to a woman from Huaxia. It could be said that it was very embarrassing. It was so embarrassing that it was as if they had lost to their grandmother.
Looking at the Aryan beauty in front of him, Ang Lee smiled and said casually, "Come, baby, sit in my arms and let me have a good look."
The South Tianzhu dancers were not only beautiful, but also lively and hot. They were not shy and shy like the women of the Tang dynasty. They were very hot.
Karinlu sat in Ang Lee's arms and gave him a seductive wink. Ang Lee could not help but be tempted.
"This little beauty is so sensible. She is so cooperative." Ang Lee thought. He was very satisfied with this little beauty.
"This little face is really tender and tender! It's so good. "
Ang Lee gently stroked Karinna's delicate little face. His eyes were full of appreciation.
"Assistant Minister Li, let me give you a toast."
Karinna picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Ang Lee.
Ang Lee was very excited. He nodded and said, "A beauty gives me wine. Even if it is poison, this official will drink it. Haha."
After drinking a glass of wine, the banquet was almost over. The little beauty in front of him had such a hot body. If he did not enjoy it, how could he be worthy of himself?
King Héraud gave a look to Karinna and Karinna to help Ang Lee to the guest room to rest. Of course, he also hinted that the two should serve Ang Lee well.
Ang Lee naturally would not refuse. He took advantage of the situation and hugged the two little beauties to the guest room where he could do naughty things.
The more one looked at the charming figures of the two little beauties, the hotter and hotter they became. The more one looked at them, the more excited they became.
Especially that towering bunny, it was too charming. The smile at the corner of its mouth made people unable to extricate themselves from it. Its thick and big lips made people think of a very dirty aspect.
The lips of the South Tianzhu women were far thicker than the lips of the women of the Tang dynasty. This seemed to indicate that their mouth skills were very strong. This was quickly verified. The moment they kissed, Ang Lee felt an unforgettable numbness.
"Darling, your lips are so cute. It's a pity that I can only kiss one at a time."
Ang Lee excitedly praised.
Karinna smiled and said, "Little sister, next, let's …"
The two of them obviously had a lot of experience. Their cooperation was really perfect. One on the top and the other on the bottom, they served Ang Lee, making Ang Lee feel limp and numb.
Perhaps it was because they were born with a good mouth, but the girls of the South Tianzhu were really good at talking. If he could not experience it himself, it would be the greatest regret in his life.
In the South Tianzhu Royal City, Ang Lee was still in a drunken stupor. In the eastern port of Garigal, the 3,000 soldiers of the Tang dynasty began to prepare for war after receiving the warning. They divided some people into the warships to ensure the safety of the warships. The rest of the main force helped the South Tianzhu soldiers to strengthen the city walls. A small part of the main force was on duty on the city walls. As long as the soldiers of the Lion Kingdom came to attack, they would be able to discover the enemy in the shortest time and repel them.
Although this army of the Tang dynasty was not the main force of the Tang dynasty army, with 3,000 soldiers and horses, plus the defense of the city walls and the port, and the 3,000 soldiers of the South Tianzhu, their strength was still considered strong. It would not be a big problem for them to block several rounds of attacks from the Lion Kingdom.
In addition, in order to prevent the Lion Kingdom army from occupying the port due to their large number of soldiers, they sent out signallers to contact the main fleet at sea. They agreed on a signal that as long as there was a battle at the port, the main fleet at sea would immediately come to the rescue and surround the attacking soldiers of the Lion Kingdom. Thus, they would achieve the final victory of the battle.
Because they could not be sure that the Lion Kingdom would definitely launch a sneak attack, only one-third of the Tang Army was on duty after dark. The rest of the main force was resting. However, they did not take off their armor. Once there was an accident, these soldiers could quickly get up and join the battle.
Li Feiyu stayed behind to guard Caligar. At this moment, he could not sleep. He was very excited when he heard that the Lion Kingdom army was likely to launch a sneak attack at night. He sent his soldiers and horses to prepare for the battle. However, at the same time, he was also worried that the situation would go wrong. Thus, he did not let the main force sleep with their armor.
At this moment, although the Tang Army was ready for battle, it was all done in secret. It was impossible to see it on the surface. The situation on the city walls was the most hidden. Ordinary people and miscellaneous people were not allowed to go up the city walls. If they made any movements on the city walls, it would be difficult to be discovered by spies.
In order to discover possible threats earlier, the reconnaissance team of the Tang Army moved high-powered binoculars up the city walls and deployed them at the most important positions. Many soldiers took turns to observe. As long as there was movement in the distance, they would adjust the lenses to observe carefully.
"Have you found the enemy?"
Li Feiyu stood on the city walls and asked the soldier next to him.
"General, we haven't found anything yet."
The soldier replied.
Li Feiyu nodded and said, "Continue to observe carefully. The sooner we find the enemy, the fewer losses we will suffer."
"Yes, General."
"By the way, have the ammunition been transported up? This thing is very helpful in defending the city walls."
